I'm concerned enough about the heat output of those bulbs not to buy them. I did a little research on the internet, and found that in less than 2 minutes use, those bulbs will exceed 300 degrees. The stock 1156 bulbs hit less than 150 degrees in that amount of time. Considering the number of 240 taillights I've seen with melted lenses, this seems like a recipe for disaster to me.
